Answer to Question #269150 in Microeconomics for Raman

Question #269150

Andrew has decided to open an online store that sells home and garden products. After searching around, he chooses the software company Initech to provide the software for his website since their product required the least amount of specialized investments for him to use it. They agreed upon price of $7,000. To use Initech’s software, Andrew makes $3,000 in sunk capital investments and spends 70 hours learning how to use Initech’s software, which is very different from other software packages. Both Andrew and Initech view Andrew’s time as worth $25 per hour and Initech is fully aware of the investments Andrew must make to use their product. After Andrew’s investments were made, Initech came to Andrew and asked for more money. 

 

What do you think is the new price Initech requested Andrew to pay?

The amount charged while learning = "70\\times 25 = 1750"

Sunk capital investments: "3000"

The new price Initech requested Andrew to pay is "3000 + 1750 =\\$ 4750"
